Last Day on This Side

Today is our last day on "this side of the pond." The last 2 weeks have just flown by...
I am not sure that my mind really gets that tomarrow we are finally leaving... to Portugal... tomarrow. We have been "in process", dreaming of going for so long that I almost can't believe that the time to get on the plane and go has finally come.
We are close to being done packing. Just the last loads of laundry, a few toys and shoes are about all I have left to get in. I thought we were going to have to pay to take extra bags but right now I only have 9 bags, (we are allowed 10) so we are doing good.
We will get up in the early in the morning and drive to Seattle, the flight leaves about 2:30 in the afternoon, we have a stopover in Germany and then land in Portugal about 3:30 Friday afternoon.
Next post... Portugal

I am so very excited for you guys. I am a little choked up over your trip and find that even though I haven't seen you guys in a long while, I will miss you. I'll be praying for a safe and not so trying flight. Have a great time and take in every moment and experience. I can't wait to hear about them.

Wow! We are so excited for you (and a little jealous). We pray for you as you travel and as you arrive. Many blessings in the days ahead.

I'm a little late in the game but I'm praying for your trip anyway! You'll be landing soon... I'll also be praying these next few days as you start to make the transition to your new culture and home. =0)
